What to do for traveller's diarrhea: What causes it, how to fix it

In this installment, Dr Ginni and I travel to Israel and discuss why so many people get diarrhoea when on holidays.

Delhi Belly, Bali Belly or Shanghai Squirts.

Whatever the name you give it, you know how bad it is. The desperate, panicked run to the loo that means you can’t leave your hotel room. It can ruin a perfectly good holiday.

So, what are the causes of diarrhoea and how can you do to avoid the butt explosions?

Things You Can’t Talk About On TV is not your regular video series. GP Dr Ginni Mansberg answers any awkward medical questions put to her by 9Honey presenter Shelly Horton. They tackle topics you'll never see covered on TV. This series looks at the medical mayhem that can take place when you travel internationally. Irreverent, funny but always informative advice. It’s compulsive (and often repulsive) viewing.
